It's quite frustrating when you spend so much time applying for a job and then hear nothing back as to whether you go an interview or your application was even close. I was able to find success in applying for jobs where I received interviews. There was a point in time where I was getting a lot of interviews. IT was all in how I applied for the job. In this episode, I talk about how to identify whether a job add is right for you to apply for the job you want and that fits you. Have you had success in applying for jobs?

The Sea Grant program has always been an important program for citizens that live within a Sea Grant state. The program conducts programs that are focused on finding solutions for state problems. In this throwback episode, Bill Wyse and I discussed the programs related to the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy. Also, there is a clip of my oldest daughter, who was 7 at the time, telling me about her favourite animal...that choked me up a bit. Do you know what your Sea Grant program does?

Indonesia has the second-largest amount of pollution entering the ocean and its citizens are tired of it. They want the government to implement better waster management systems. The movement for a better system is driven by the youth of Indonesia, which has worked with the government to recently ban plastic bags, styrofoam, and plastic straws in July 2019. More needs to be done though. Listen to the episode for more information. Link to article: https://news.mongabay.com/2020/02/in-bali-young-people-lead-the-fight-as-a-plastic-plague-threatens-paradise/ Do you think the Indonesian Government is on the right track?

It took me a while to figure out my Marine Conservation Career Path. 18 years to be exact. I experimented quite a bit with jobs in different sectors, but I never really found the job that equalled my passion for Marine Conservation. Full disclosure, my path was restricted to being a Marine Biologist living in Ontario, which required me to be creative. That creativity spawned this very podcast and fulfilled my passion and path for my Marine Conservation Career. There are many of you in the audience who are following in my footsteps. You are not looking to follow your career path in Marine Conservation because all you are doing is searching for ANYTHING in Marine Conservation. It's the same way I started my career. It's time we change that. I talk about setting your career path to ensure that you know exactly which jobs you need to fulfill your passion. Take a listen and let me know what you think in the Marine Science and Conservation Careers Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/career.

I'm taking it back to episode 6 when I interviewed a good friend of mine Angelo Villagomez from the Pew Charitable Trust. He worked with small island communities to help them protect sharks using Marine Protected Areas. He still works with Pew on Marine Protected Areas for all of the Oceans. This was Angelo's first time on the podcast. He's been on other episodes and podcasts within the Speak Up For Blue Podcast Network. Can you find the episodes?

SeaWorld has been through a lot since the release of a documentary that exposed the truth behind marine mammal captivity. Blackfish was released in 2013 and caused SeaWorld to change its business practices surrounding Orcas; however, they were sued for allegedly downplaying the effect of Blackfish on their reporting to investors. They had to pay quite a bit of money but potentially got off without admitting to being guilty. Now, Seaworld is starting to earn money again after promoting free beer in Orlando and rides in California. They still have Orcas but they don't do shows nor do they profit off of the Orca reproduction business because it is now illegal. No Orca shows confirm that the best way to see Orcas is in the wild with a reputable Whale Watching outfit. Link To Article: https://www.bizjournals.com/orlando/news/2020/02/11/seaworld-settles-blackfish-related-classaction.html Have you seen Orcas in the wild? Was it life-changing?

I wanted to share a story about the time I applied for, what I thought, was my dream job. Spoiler alert, I didn't get the job, but this story highlights the problem with the way job applicants are treated by some employers as they seek employment.

Another Throwback Wednesday is upon us. The 5th episode of the Speak Up For The Ocean Blue Podcast was with Dr. Ellen Prager. She has pretty much accomplished everything of which most Marine Biologists can only dream. She's lectured, she's been the Executive Director of an Institute, she's authored papers, and she's authored novels for tweens. I was very happy to interview Ellen on all of her accomplishments, but I was super excited for her to talk about how coral reefs can benefit Human Health. Check out the latest of Ellen's accomplishments at her website: http://ellenprager.com/ What other benefits do Coral Reefs provide?

The Turks And Caicos are overfishing their conchs and tourists are worried that they can't get their conch for dinner anymore. That was a bit sarcastic. Unfortunately, the demand for conchs outside of the beautiful Islands of the Turks and Caicos is driving the population to extinction and people are calling for an All-Out Ban on fishing for the once plentiful mollusc. Link to the article: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-51285893 Do you think there should be a ban on fishing conch?
